Hello
I live in an SRO/Hotel/Whatever in NYC. Been here 20 years. Within the last ten years our building after being an SRO fer many decades has become a plain hotel again and no more apts are being rented out. I have been thinking of adopting a dog as a pet. Here's the rub. I have been told 'unofficially' by a bud on the staff of my building that they are not allowed by the management. Which BTW is not the same crew that ran the building when I moved in. When I moved in (oh so long ago ) my roomate and I filled out our application and there was nothing about it noted there. Also many other longterm tenants have pets. I understand that they may be 'grandfathered' but I still have never seen anything in print that specifically forbade having a dog. What are my rights? BTW relations with building/hotel management while always fraught with the typical tenant-landlord strains are generally ok. They're just waiting fer us to move or die out (in the case of the older tenants)
Thanks very much
